Herpes or NOT?

Herpes or NOT?

Dear Anyone,

I had unprotected oral sex with a girl I never knew and might never see again. She was the one who performed the oral sex on me (male). During the incident, I did not notice any sores on her mouth. However, 15 days after exposure, my penis feels different (I am uncircumcized). It seems to be more "retracted" or "smaller" and the foreskin seems to be irritated. As of writting, there are no red spots or blisters on my penis but the feeling is really different from what it used to be b4 this incident.

There are also 3-4 very tiny(not in clusters, but seperated) blisters on various location on my hands. I did fingered her during the even and also had protected sex.

My questions are,
1) What are the chances that after 15 days of exposure, the virus finally shows itself? (I have read on the internet that herpes 1st outbreak should be within 2-14 days after exposure).
2) I'm really lost at the moment and need some advice on what should I do if I were to be infected by the virus?
3) Could it be symptoms of other STD or is it because of over anxiety?
4) When should I do a blood test for all STDs, and the duration of symptoms to occur after exposure for different kinds of STDs to kick in?

Plz help me, I'm stress out to the max now and really worried if I'll to contract genital herpes..

you need to be seen and get properly examined with lesion cultures and typing done of your symptoms.

It's very doubtful you got hsv2 from oral sex. You could've had it before this and just are now getting obvious lesions but odds are if this is herpes it's hsv1. this is why typing is so important.

have you ever had a herpes blood test done before?

Hey bro check it out. It probally is herpes but i have it and its not all that bad at all. Do you know the sores that you get in the mouth comonly know as ulcers?? Well herpes is almost exactly the same thing. I also transmitted to my girlfriend and honestly it has not affected us in any extreme negative way at all. you would be surprised how many people have the virus. Its  Not all that life changing. Just be carful not to spread it around.

the herpes is still in a very early stage as i have done blood test which returned negative for both hsv1 and hsv2.. however the doctor has since said that there is nothing to worry about this and more concern is on HIV.... I am currently on medication, using acyclovir 3 times a day to get rid of this sores...

Since I have seen 3 different doctors regarding my case, they have all said that I must be checked for HIV after 6 months.. I did not say in my earlier post that I did have sex with her on 3 occasions in that 1 night of foolishness... However, all occasion I used new condoms and I am very sure that I was protected... The girl also told me that she does not have HIV which I pray to God that it is true.!

Thx for replying grace and ready06... There's nothing much more I can do except to take it positively and hope for the best.
